Are you treating your employees with disabilities well?
From experience, Jenny Lay-Flurrie, chief accessibility officer at Microsoft can attest to how “nervous” everyone gets around people with disabilities.
At a recent Inclusive Business Forum organised by SG Enable, Lay-Flurrie shared her experience of being hearing impaired in a company that’s on a constant journey towards inclusivity.
She also gave tips on how leaders and staff can take simple steps to treat their coworkers better.
When Lay-Flurrie first joined Microsoft more than a decade ago, she hid her disability.
